Died at 16 Playing Soccer - Cara's 7 Minute NDE

Heart Stopped for 7 Minutes! Cara shares her NDE publicly for the first time.During a high school soccer playoff game, a ball struck her in the left temple with such force that it stopped her heart for seven minutes. The moment she lost consciousness, she found herself floating above the scene, watching her teammates and parents — not as physical bodies, but as brilliant, swaying flames of light. She felt an overwhelming sense of pure love, complete freedom from fear, and a profound sense of being held by the universe.__________________________Get 15% off OneSkin with code ROUNDTRIP at https://www.oneskin.co/ROUNDTRIP#oneskinpod #sponsored__________________________At the conclusion of her NDE, coming back to her body was jarring — cold, fluorescent, and heavy with all the emotions she had briefly escaped. Diagnosed with brain damage, Kara faced a long road of healing, but the experience quietly transformed her. It ignited a lifelong obsession with the mind-body connection, eventually leading her to yoga, which she found could reconnect her to those same feelings of peace and love.The central message from her NDE (near death experience): the love she experienced on the other side is fully accessible to us right now, if we can quiet the noise of fear, worry, and self-doubt long enough to feel it.Video Version of This EpisodeRoundTripDeath.comDonate to this podcast: https://www.roundtripdeath.com/support/Cara: https://www.caravanderbauwede.com/OneSkin Study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38400612/
